REAL LIFE NEWS: PERV CAUGHT BY HIS OWN TECH

by Hazed

I love stories where criminals are foiled by technology, but this one is a new low in idiocy from the perpetrator in question. A peeping tom was hoist by his own petard after being snapped by his own spycam.

The peeper fitted a miniature camera into the ladies changing room of a supermarket in Cheshire, England. It didn't take long before the camera was discovered in the light fitting where he had placed it - just 30 minutes - and police were called to the store. When they examined the camera they discovered that the man had forgotten to turn the camera off while he was positioning it, so the memory card contained some lovely self-portraits.

Police have now issued the picture along with a description and are asking anyone who recognises the pervert to contact them.

You can see one of the incriminating self-portraits here. And if you recognize him - call the police!
